About this product

Product Information

Colletta uses psychoanalytic theories of joke-work and gallows humour to argue that dark humour is an important, defining characteristic of Modernism. She brings together the usual suspects alongside more often overlooked writers from the period, and asks probing questions about the relationship between a dark humour that 'revels in the non-rational, the unstable, and the fragmented, and resists easy definition and political usefulness' and the historical and social circumstances of the period. Colletta makes a compelling argument that probing deeply into the nature of humour or satire that define these 'social comedies' brings to light a more complex, and more accurate, understanding of the social changes and historical circumstances that define the modern era.

I am delighted with my purchase. 100% satisfaction. Customer service excellent. I am a great Lone Ranger fan and I love Clayton Moore. No-one brought this character to life like Clayton. He embodied the spirit of the Lone Ranger even off the set. The book is excellent and full of photos and personal recollections. Highly recommended. The book was well packed and arrived in excellent condition. Nice company to deal with. Excellent and prompt communication:)
